Apostle Patrobas

The holy, glorious, all-laudable Apostle Patrobas (Patrobos, Patrobus, Parrobus) is numbered among the Seventy Apostles. He was Bishop of Neapolis (Naples) or of Pottole (cf. recounting of Dorotheus below), and is referred to in Scripture when St. Paul greets him in his letter to the Romans (16:14). The Church remembers St. Patrobas on November 5, with his fellow apostles Ss. Hermas, Linus, Gaius, and Philologos.
